This is medium-carbon steel. The higher carbon content imparts higher strength properties than 1018. The hot rolled bars used in the manufacture of this product are of special quality. Most bars are cold drawn, although some larger sizes are turned and polished.

When higher degrees of dimensional accuracy and straightness are required, we recommend the use of PRECISION SHAFTING, which is produced by grinding and polishing.
